If you own one of these: Here are my congratulations. This is a best buy small money loudspeaker from the 1990. In Germany it was 600 DM without stands in 1992, which was not a lot.
It is really good engineers for this price, with a custom made bass-middle paper cone and a quite cheap (looking) tweeter. But everything seems to be taken into account with it. The phase, the way, all corners were accoustically smoothed around the drivers, the overload varistors, the simple but very effective cabin with the double part front. It has a very simple 6bd crossover for both drivers and only thin 0.75mm2 cables. But don’t try to change anything. No other capacitor, no other coil or cable. Forget biwiring. No use for it, just use it, the best compromise already is already achieved.
I mean the thing about this speaker is, that you can connect sources and electronics of 50000€ to it and it still tells all the slightest difference in sound and it still sounds great. This is amazing, I heard it with a really big turntable and cartridge and a state of the art pre-/ poweramp combination. It just took the pace.
